Scrollbars for oversized signatures

[WordKeeper]

I've seen image resize mods and stuff like that, but the scrollbar seems better in my experiences.

This requires just one template edit, no downloading or uploading. ... And it should work on any version of vB.

Live Demo (http://www.TheWordKeeper.com/christian_forums)

In the POSTBIT template find:
$post[signature]

Replace with:
<div style="max-width:900px; max-height:150px; overflow:auto;">
$post[signature]
</div>

EDIT: If you use LEGACY style (username and everything on the left, post on the right or vice versa on some themes) then you you should edit the postbit_legacy template instead.

Adjust what I have in red to your liking. ... some forums are wider than others.

hey,

I made copy and paste for the cood ?!

but nothing changed

I have version 3.8.3

regards

[WordKeeper]

If you copied and pasted correctly, the scrollbars are not showing because none of the signatures on your board go beyond the dimensions that are in the code; therefore, they are not needed.

If you still have signatures that are too big, then you probably did it wrong or you need to change the dimensions to better fit your theme.

It works perfect on my 3.8.3

I should've added this in the first post... If you use LEGACY style (username and everything on the left, post on the right or vice versa on some themes) then you you should edit the postbit_legacy template instead.

This works for message too that are insanely long.

replace $post[message] with:

<div style="max-height:1000px; overflow:auto;">
$post[message]
</div>

Thanks works great!

Installed but many users seem to dislike it... probably won't last long. :(

Can the width be set to a percentage instead of pixels?

[Tettinntil]

Can this be added for some usergroups only?

[BirdOPrey5]

Not as it is currently written but I think you could use vB conditionals (<if> statements) to limit it to specified usergroups.

[Tettinntil]

Thanks - I guess I will have to wait for someone else then... ;)

[BirdOPrey5]

Can this be added for some usergroups only?

Put this line before the code above:
<if condition="is_member_of($post, 2, 5, 6, 7 )">
and put this line after the code above:
</if>

Then change the numbers, 2,5,6,7 to whatever usergroup or usergroups you want to activate this for. The numbers I supplied pretty much activate this for anyone. registered users, mods, admins, and super-mods.

[Iguana Goddess]

I would like to use this but I run 4.1.2, could some one update the coding on this please?

[BirdOPrey5]
